I don't think I've ever properly suffered with anxiety - stress is more my thing, though I'm sure the two are somehow linked - but the current coronavirus situation is enough to make anyone as tense and panic-ridden as a hedgehog on a highway. So there are a few...
I interrupt the gift guide frenzy to bring you some videos that have somehow slipped the net, here on A Model Recommends. Firstly, this house update and then - perhaps tomorrow if I get a move on - a rambling makeup try-on with a fancy new red lipstick and a chat...
I must admit that the title sounds slightly click-baity, but I filmed my latest house update when I was still waiting for the big glass doors to arrive and all building work had come to a total halt - it felt very appropriate. Like that bit in Grand Designs when...
Good God, this is my lowest innuendo-based titling moment yet. I'm afraid that titles have never been my strong point - perhaps I should hire someone who writes catchy titles for a living. Someone with a good grasp of popular key words and most-searched categories and...
Question: is a part of a building still called an extension if there was something there before it? I've been mulling this over because I've been automatically referring to our new dining room as an extension but is it? We've demolished one thing (a weird,...
Here's a "home haul" video, which I believe is the correct down-with-the-kids-speak for Things I've Been Buying For The House. Which could also be called Ruth's Neverending Stream of Parcel Deliveries, or even Ruth's Husband's Ultimate Source of Discontent, because he...
I like to throw out a little video of myself now and then, otherwise you're all left to construct a mental image of me from the mad things that I write about like gussets and too-small boilersuits and the restraining order that Tom Hardy took out against me. I'm not...
This video will honestly either make you want to dry heave into a paper bag or fill you with utter joy; it's ever so slightly sentimental andI use my "mummy voice". You have been warned. I went to Lapland on a press trip recently and wanted to film something for Ted...
Here's a visual delight for you; over 15 minutes of beauty confessional from Yours Truly. I talk about the Ten Year Challenge that took over Instagram and how I feel about my skin now that I'm 38, all via a chat about smoking and cosmetic surgery. So if you've ever...
There's going to be a follow-up video to this video, and it's going to be called Should I Move To The Country? Because I fear that I might have made moving to the country seem like a no-brainer decision in my latest Day In The Life; I feed the chickens as the sun...
A brand new vlog to start a brand new year and there's a brand new bag thrown in for good measure. Not literally "thrown" because it's a lovely bag and deserves a bit of respect (also the chain on it weighs a tonne and would probably make a dent in the floor as it...
The one you've all (maybe) been waiting for - the house tour. OK, so it's not a room-by-room reveal of the whole place, MTV Cribs style, but it's as much of a house peek as you're probably going to get. You can always see bits and pieces of the inside of my home on...
